Malvern Show this weekend

I'm setting up at the Three Counties Showground this afternoon for the Malvern Autumn Show. As usual I'm exhibiting with the Worcestershire Guild of Craftsmen in the Wye Hall alongside Penny Williams. The weather forecast looks good so I'm hoping for lots of visitors! I'm going to show some of the Autumn Leaves metalwork pieces.

More information regarding the show can be found at www.threecounties.co.uk and on the WGDC website www.wgdc.org.uk
The Guild will have the new directory's available at the show which are a very useful guide to the Guild members. My Bransford studio will still be open today and Saturday as usual.

Metalwork Sections in production












With numerous exhibitions & events coming up fast I thought I'd better get cracking on making some metalwork panels. As these are the most labour intensive pieces I produce I thought I would make as many pieces as possible over the next few days & then start to assemble them together. As I am showing at the Malvern Autumn Show this weekend I only have today to work on production!



These are a few of the pieces I made yesterday....

Spring Colours at Spring Garden Show

Verdigris metalwork with embossed & etched decoration

Medium panel

I have set up my display stand at the Malvern Spring Gardening Show today. I'm showing my new colours for the first time....a duck egg blue with bronzed metalwork & chocolate brown with new verdigris finish. I'm really pleased with the look - it has given a 'fresh' feel to the work. Some of the pieces look quite ancient ...like they have been buried underground.

I think the contrast between the colours works really well. The inspiration may have come from my last Cornwall break... looking at some of the photos...particularly the fab garage door I found in St Ives
